I know T-Bone has great interest in earthquakes as she even has a widget notifying her of all earthquakes happening around the world, so I’m sure she finds great interest in the 3.6 magnitude earthquake that occurred this morning in South Carolina.  Here is the statistical information on the quake:

The cat with purr-fect vision! Almost-blind boggie Ernest has his life transformed by wearing CONTACT LENS

This from the Times Online.  Tonight is going to be a uniquely large full moon.

Look up tonight for a spectacular treat in the sky

Biggest full moon for years enhanced by shooting stars

If the full moon tonight looks unusually large, it is not your imagination – it is the biggest and brightest full moon to be seen for 15 years.

Each month the Moon makes a full orbit around the Earth in a slightly oval-shaped path, and tonight it will swing by the Earth at its closest distance, or perigee. It will pass by 356,613km (221,595 miles) away, which is about 28,000km closer than average.

The unusual feature of tonight is that the perigee also coincides with a full moon, which will make it appear 14 per cent bigger and some 30 per cent brighter than most full moons this year – so long as the clouds hold off from blocking the view.

The next closest encounter with a full moon this large will not be until November 14, 2016.
